The 15th Annual Hot Air Balloon Festival 2010 Coverage

Today is just the perfect day for a colorful adventure!Â Itâ€™s Valentineâ€™s day and Chinese New Year at the same time!Â To add up to the flavour,Â The last day of the 15th Annual Hot Air Balloon Festival 2010 happens today!

I drove from the house to Clark while the monkey sleepsâ€¦ (â€˜coz I know itâ€™s harder to drive on our way back home kekeke)â€¦ It took us only about an hour and a half (including Restroom breaks and snacks).Â No traffic at this time!Â We arrived at the grounds at 4:30.Â We got hungry again so we ate at the kiosks aroundâ€¦ The sun wasnâ€™t still up and the whole area is still covered with a black blanket at some glittery stars.

Then, we heard the song â€œ?!?!?â€ — I forgot whatâ€¦ but I liked the song and it kinda signaled that the balloons are being prepared for flight!Â Off we went and take pictures!Â I donâ€™t know how to estimate as to how many people were there but It filled the area!

There was a complete list of activities for the dayâ€¦ but I think, our lack of sleep yesterday made it hard for us to keep going.Â I would have wanted to see the fireworks as well at nightâ€¦ but we figuredâ€¦ we really were getting restless and tired so we decided to go home instead.Â I slept for a few minutesâ€¦ then I heard the monki slapping himself (lol) He was way to SLEEPY!Â We needed to pitstop at a gas station at got our coffees from Gloria Jeans.

Anyway, here are my pictures of the Hot Air Balloon Festivalâ€¦ ^_^

They are starting to get ready!Â See the burning flame at my back

The Candy is trying to get a nice angle… There were so many people!

Ahhh… a very colorful balloon… I wish I could ride one…

I love taking pictures of this balloon!

Up! Up! and AWAY!!!

Sun is shining… the weather is sweet!

I love this picture! I look so tall!

I’m getting slimmer ^_^ This shot was taken with flash… Click on the pictures and get directed to my flickr pro page to view the settings of my camera 😀

I see turtle!!!

I was telling Vince to “tilt” the camera some more… I guess it worked pretty nice 🙂 with the Flash firing as well 😀

field pass lang… no free ride 🙁 and it was Sunday, Valentine’s day… I think it was the busiest day of the festival… If ever we do want a ride… malamang hindi kami makakasakay pa rin… Best time to go here are weekdays…

Great pictures! I found your blog because I was looking for pictures from this event. We arrived sooo late and we only saw partially blown balloons because it was so windy. So, I had to show my daughter that those balloons are really capable of flying. Thanks for posting =)
